What I ate:
Taiwanese Meat Rice
-
6.5/10
-
Disappointing
-
Lacked fatty umaminess
-
The meat was rough and the sauce was not done well
-
The rice was also not of good quality
Chicken Nugget with Fried Rice
-
7/10
-
The chicken nuggets lacked crispiness
-
The inside of the chicken nugget was not juicy
-
The batter on the outside was no good
-
The fried rice – 6.5/10
-
Was not fried well-there were bits of rice that had not been incorporated into the soya sauce and were white
-
The fried rice just contained the heads and tails of vegetables
Deep Fried Red Pork
-
7.5/10
-
Before marinating, they did not get rid of the tendons and tissues which made some parts of the pork very chewy
-
Nice balance of sweet and sour and salty
-
Nice and crispy
Summary: Not the best Taiwanese food in Vancouver. Many of their dishes are misses
